I live in a heavily wooded area with a LOT of ticks, and don't really want to keep guinea hens as a pet, but as a 'natural predetor' to my pest problem.

So I've been wanting to get pet ducks... but I just read about geese, and they seem to be better with humans than ducks, so long as you get them at a super young age and hey imprint... Now after all the research I've done, I know personalities have a lot to do with this, as well as who is...

Quote: I live in the woods with plenty of predators so I'll keep them in a cage pretty much as big as I can build, itll be outside and theyll have planty of room to forage, ill probably keep a kiddie pool in the cage during the day and let them out from 3-7 or 8 I would leave them out longer...

Quote: I'm looking for cute ducks, but I don't really care much about if they're a pure bread whatever, I want them to be happy, and friendly with humans, and playful. I'd like to be able to watch them and have them eat out of my hand and such, I'm not looking for all of them to want to sit in...
